Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced plans on Tuesday to build 10,000 student hostels across the city, focusing on safety and affordable housing. The government is already working on the project and aims to provide a secure environment for students to study and live with peace of mind. The hostels will accommodate both male and female students from universities and colleges in Delhi.
The initiative follows the tragic collapse of a private boys' hostel in September, which resulted in the death of seven people, including five students and two labourers.

Rekha Gupta assured families that the initiative will eliminate concerns about accommodation and safety, allowing students to focus on their studies and dreams.
